Speechless, but the answer's in my mouth
Breathless, the emotion's seeping out beyond my control
You spoke to my silence
Why so cold?

[Chorus]:
You ask for peace, I give you war
While you let go, I hold too tightly
I take my aim, you hit the flow
I'm not ready to lay down my arms

Cracking, my defense is breaking down
The unraveling of a rope I put around me
You won't take no for an answer.

[Chorus]:
You ask for peace, I give you war
While you let go, I hold too tightly
I take my aim, you hit the flow
I'm not ready to lay down my arms

I don't know why I was missing until you lost and I...
I won

You made me realize my incompleteness alone
Can no longer live by candlelight
When you showed me the sun

[Chorus]:
You ask for peace, I give you war
While you let go, I hold too tightly
I take my aim, you hit the flow
I'm not ready to lay down my arms
